The History of Gymkhana
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia . . .
Gymkhana is an Indian term for a place where sporting events take
place and refers to any of various meets at which contests are held
to test the skill of the competitors, such as in the sports of
equestrianship, gymnastics, or sports car racing.
In the United Kingdom, the term gymkhana now almost always refers to
an equestrian event, often with the emphasis on children's
participation (such as those organized by the Pony Club), although
in the past the word was sometimes used for motorsport events.
In equestrian competitions, gymkhana classes are timed speed events
such as Barrel racing, Keyhole, Figure 8, and Pole bending.
The Complete Guide to Gymkhana for Horses
is an action packed, fun to watch video on horseback racing that
anyone can do. This video is not the typical
horse video with someone talking into the camera for an hour. All
the events and tips are demonstrated with actual riders and great
country music.
